If you are entering the Great Expectations Contest (or even if you aren't), please consider serving as a judge! We need both published and pre-published writers of romance and women's fiction who are willing to provide constructive feedback to their fellow writers. Don't worry if you've never judged before; we'll provide you with informative training and answer all of your questions via our judges' Yahoo group.

If you are interested in judging, please take a few minutes to fill out the information form here:

Within about 48 hours of the submission of your form, we'll send you an e-mail invitation to join the Yahoo Group. We ask that all judges join the group (if you don't want to receive the messages, you can set your preferences to "daily digest" or even just receive "special notices" from your friendly neighborhood coordinator).

The Great Expectations contest is for unpublished material, including those from published authors*. Now in its 17th consecutive year, North Texas RWA can help you receive unbiased opinions from three judges on the first 5,000 words of your story. First round judged results returned by the beginning of March. *Please consult our rules if you are a published author.

The Great Expectations Contest is an annual opportunity for authors of unpublished romantic fiction to obtain valuable feedback. If you are interested in attending NTWRA or joining our fabulous organization, the image is a link to our website.
